Luka began, but Ivana gently interrupted him.Hr: "Luka, tvoje zdravlje je važno. Moramo se pobrinuti za tebe", rekla je, uhvativši ga za ruku kao znak podrške.En: "Luka, your health is important. We need to take care of you," she said, taking his hand as a sign of support.Hr: Nakon događaja, Luka je priznao Ivani svoje nedavne probleme.En: After the event, Luka confessed his recent problems to Ivana.Hr: Bojao se da će ga ljudi gledati drugačije.En: He feared people would look at him differently.Hr: No, Ivana je kroz blag osmijeh rekla: "Nikada nemoj sakrivati svoje brige. Svi mi trebamo pomoć ponekad."En: But Ivana, with a gentle smile, said, "Never hide your worries. We all need help sometimes."Hr: S Ivaninom pomoći, Luka je odlučio potražiti liječnički savjet.En: With Ivana's help, Luka decided to seek medical advice.Hr: Iz čajoteke je izašao s novom svjesnošću – nije sam, drugi brinu i žele mu pomoći.En: He left the tea shop with a new awareness – he wasn't alone, others cared and wanted to help him.Hr: Ivana je naučila da ponekad, riskirajući i pitajući ljude je li sve...
